The Brothers Brick
“The LEGO Technic flagship sets of 2019 are yet to be released, but it's safe to say that 42098 Car Transporter is one of the most engaging and surprising products of the last several years. This set has so many advantages, it's hard to find a reason not to get one in case... More you're choosing one to get this autumn. It's a brilliant collection of pieces for custom builds, it's 3 models in one set, and it's simply a great toy.”

“The overall look of the car transporter is a wondrous thing. Regardless of the size, it looks incredibly accurate to its real life counterparts and really comes into its own once one or more cars are placed on top or below. Technic sets more than anything rely on stickers to... More add the necessary details and in this instance they look fantastic too, really adding to the final look.”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Car Transporter set 42098 was released on August 3, 2019, retailing for $180, it has since been retired. New, unopened sets are valued at $256, used ones can be found for $177.
